Use

A scanner group combines multiple virus scanners of the same type to achieve load balancing. A virus scan is always performed by specifying the group.

Instead of using SAP's implementation of the virus scan server, you can use your own implementation, which is addressed using the Business Add-In VSCAN_INSTANCE. If you want to use this option, you can identify the scanner group correspondingly.

Requirements

Standard settings

SAP does not deliver any scanner groups.

Activities

Maintain a scanner group for each product class of virus scanners that is to be connected to the system using the virus scan server.

If you use the BAdI VSCAN_SERVER to include your own virus scanners, you should also create a scanner group for each implementation of your own scanner, and identify it as a "BAdI Implementation".

You can store configuration parameters for each scanner group. These are divided into initialization parameters and scan parameters.

Initialization parameters are transferred to the virus scan server when it is starting, and are required to be able to start the server. If you are using the Business Add-In, they transfer the method for generating the scan instance.

Scan parameters are transferred for each scan process, and control the behavior of the individual requests.

For information about which configuration parameters are required or supported by the product that you use, see the documentation for the product.
